AnOldAlias Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Hope my title card here makes sense, but, what I was basically trying to say was.. For example, we have the normal railjack shown off at Last year and Current year's Tennocon. Do you think we'll eventually have different actual railjack ships for other factions as well? An Infested Railjack(Probably from Arlo's 'friendly' strain should the NW go that route), Corpus, Orokin, Sentient, Grineer, etc. Hopefully it'll also allow for more unique gun-types for those ships as well, mind you, and perhaps different types of gear/activate-ables? Idk. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example you can choose to align with the courpus and get their set of weapons and customisation or choose to join the kuva litch and bully courpus and get kuva rewards from doing bounties. Hopeful DE takes note of this topic and imports this into the empyrean update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)Hikuro-93 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I think it's pretty much guaranteed at this point given what we know. Maybe even some enhanced parts related to multiple factions, like prime, vandal, wraith, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loza03 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Possibly. Depends largely on if they can retrofit the Crew Ships that the other factions have as enemies into something with all the features we'd need, I reckon. I'd say it's more likely that there are multiple classes of Tenno-made Railjack though - partly because it may be easier to make. But I don't know about that.

InDueTime-EN- Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I'm guessing the modularity of the railjacks would be function rather than cosmetic. However, I don't see any reason why they would not have a variety of designs (at launch or soonTM after). They already have the grineer warships which in theory, can be used. Just look at the liset. It basically did not have any functions, but they decided to give players options that barely made any difference (non that a lot of players use), aside from cosmetic ones. I'm sure that it is their plan to make more than just one design. Maybe even let tennogen skins or what not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(XBOX)ShadowBlood89 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 railjack is gonna be modular with its parts. from what they said an shown you will be having differnt parts in dojo an tech gained from misions. so could be that need to do missions to get the blueprints for parts for your ship to have clans research them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrakeWurrum Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Not at first. That's part of why they're making it modular. You can equip different systems and independently boost different parts of the ship to play the way you like. I think they're focused on getting the Empyrean systems up and running first, and then MAYBE in the future we can get different ship models.

Sitchrea Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I see no reason why they wouldn't. Look at any space game and tell me more ship designs are a bad thing? If anything, the more the better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmareT12 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 You can count with Orokin/Prime at some point as Railjacks are obviously Orokin technology. The rest though, who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldain Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I'm expecting something like "here's a base clunker to work with, customize to your liking" personally with progress and growth being achieved not by just cramming old resources into research but rather new resources found in Railjack missions, and as you customize it and it gets stronger and more durable you can get more and so on.

I hope they mean modular as in actually modular and not modular as in "modular" weapons (zaws/Kitguns). Cause the Zaws and Kitguns are one of the least modular, modular systems I've ever seen.

seprent Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 i just want to know how many missiles salvos i can strap to a ship and big over the top cannons and if we will have configuration load-outs not the little stuff you can change on the fly but like weapon set ups i like ships in 2 flavors overwhelming firepower or one shot so damn powerful it can sink a galleon in a 1-2 shots then armor it up to high heaven and im happy could care less for speed i want it to be a slow force of nature ill worry how it looks later the Ebon hawk is going to make a come back at-least in my little warframe world i could not be more excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause the Zaws and Kitguns are one of the least modular, modular systems I've ever seen. Modular as in, you equip a loadout of different types of systems to the ship, and you toggle those on/off depending on your specific needs for the mission, or even mid-mission for that specific stage of the fight. Also looks like you can specifically boost things like engines or shields or cannons. As well as equip different kinds of cannons, missiles, countermeasures, etc. Steve called it "a meta warframe" Edited July 18, 2019 by DrakeWurrum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrBorris Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Even with the abilities being modular and having an AI crew, soloing or even duo'ing seems like it is going to be tedious. The Railjack is just so... big. I'd love to see a smaller "Railjack", with only one deck and access to all the same abilities/upgrades as the big Railjack, but less turrets and maybe a slightly reduced max energy capacity.

Well, the alternative solution is, I guess... we finally have real incentive to join a clan. Or, in my case, maybe I'll actually start building my clan? I have just me and the wife in mine, and I've been WAY too stubborn to give up and join an established one because of all the time and resources I sunk into building the dojo.

Veridian Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 I doubt at start we'd have alternatives, but I do hope they give us an alternative to Jar Jar down the line, because, while I'd take what I'm given, I don't particularly enjoy the design.

Or something along those lines. (Must be along those lines) Everyone else is, from lowest to highest: Minion > Flunky > Crony > Lackey > Pawn Edited July 18, 2019 by Kaotyke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
